Urdu Conversation - Learn to speak fluent Urdu with a fine accent

Van 24 $ /h

I am a native Urdu speaker and love this polite and cultured language. Those students who wish to speak Urdu for the sake of personal enjoyment and fulfillment – or even to converse with their spouses, friends, and family – will learn with me to speak the language with a fine neutral accent. I will provide several real-life scenarios and encourage students to hold hesitation-free conversations with a pleasant accent. At the end of successfully finishing this course, the student will be able to converse in Urdu without hesitation.
Urdu is a beautiful language that is spoken by more than 200 million people worldwide in countries like Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, the United Arab Emirates, and other parts of the world. Urdu started developing in North India around Delhi in the 12th century. It was based on the language spoken in the area around Delhi and was heavily influenced by Arabic and Persian as well as Turkish.
Urdu originates from Hindi, sometimes referred to as the 'sister' language of Urdu due to its grammatical basis. However, Hindi is written in 'Devanagari', a script similar to Sanskrit, and its vocabulary is influenced more by Sanskrit than by Persian and Arabic.

I provide conversational as well as reading/writing courses in Urdu. If you have any topics of interest, please go ahead and suggest them, and I will adjust my course to fit them in. Alternatively, I use scenarios of my own in order to teach, which include business settings, shopping, traveling, etc. There's an immense difference between learning a language and learning to speak it confidently, and I intend to help you bridge that gap and overcome your hesitation.

English Conversation - Learn to speak fluent English with a neutral accent

19 $ /h

Learn basic English grammar, tenses, and vocabulary to become fluent in everyday conversation with a neutral accent. I will provide several real-life scenarios and encourage students to hold hesitation-free conversations with a pleasant accent.

Regardless of the many languages, one is fortunate to be fluent in, English takes its place as one of the world’s predominant forms of communication with its influences extending over as many as +2 billion people globally.

Where it all started

Many of you will be forgiven for thinking that studying an English Language course consists of English grammar more than anything else. While English grammar does play a part when taking courses to improve English overall, it is but a small part of the overall curriculum where one becomes immersed in a history that was partly influenced by myths, battles, and legends on one hand, and the everyday workings of its various social class on the other.

According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, the English language itself really took off with the invasion of Britain during the 5th century. Three Germanic tribes, the Jutes, Saxons and Angles were seeking new lands to conquer and crossed over from the North Sea. It must be noted that the English language we know and study through various English language courses today had yet to be created as the inhabitants of Britain spoke various dialects of the Celtic language.

The course in Italian, divided into several sections between phonetics, grammar, and vocabulary, aims to provide students with the basics of every day Italian, ensuring them a good command of the essential vocabulary, useful to support both the conversation, understand written Italian and knowing how to write texts in this language.

I am Laura , a Spanish woman living in The Hague. I have been teaching and helping high school students with their homework and study methods since 2014 as a private tutor. I have experience as a language teacher in different schools in Madrid (extracurricular activities) for children between 3 and 10 years old. I work as a Spanish teacher since 2019 in various countries, helping numerous students to improve their speaking, listening and writing skills.

I studied Nutrition and Dietetics (4 years bachelor) at Complutense University of Madrid. Later and determined by my love for languages, I completed the BA in Linguistics in Leiden University, following the Brain and Cognition specialization, which focuses in how language and second languages learning works in a neural level.

Depending on the goal, the learning or lesson method is different. Normally, the first day I meet the student and we talk about what he or she expects and the topics we need to pay more attention. From that, I organise and structure a learning plan for reaching the desired goals (listening, speaking, writing, etc) or level (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2).

TECHNOLOGIES FOR LEARNING.

Hey,

My name is Laurie and I am an independent FLE teacher, graduated in French and Romance languages and literature since 2012. I have five years of experience under my belt (abroad and in Belgium). I have created a teaching method for online courses.

The course includes:
-The material (articles, videos, exercises from images and texts, grammatical theory, links to the exercises...). I use Google Doc so it's best to have a Gmail address to access it.
-The correction of exercises outside of class (the written expressions are corrected outside of class, or with the student, according to his needs).
-Access to an application (free) to study vocabulary on your smartphone.
-A vocabulary sheet - pronunciation - grammar / conjugation, sent after each course.
-If necessary, a vocabulary recording (for beginners).
-The realization of online exercises and tests from the sent vocabulary sheets.
-Motivation, laughter, good mood :-)

My method:
- It's based on speaking.
-For grammar I use a question/answer method (learned during the training at the CERAN center).
-We work on pronunciation with the verbotonal method (exercises for setting your voice, for rhythm, etc.). I might even make you sing! :-)
-Everything goes through the spoken word before the written word, but I clearly adapt to the needs of the students.
-The course is a little different for children and adolescents: I use interactive games and cards via webcam.

See you soon!
Laurie

Welcome to French Class! 🇫🇷✨For children 👧👦🫶

I’m Valerie, an experienced French teacher working with the Alliance Française in collaboration with the European School. I’ve been teaching kids online for years, and here’s the thing — it works amazingly well! Parents are often skeptical at first. I get it. Online learning can sound a bit... off. But surprise! Kids love it.

Why does it work so well?
✅ They’re at home, comfy and relaxed — no stress, no pressure.
✅ Learning feels natural and fun, with games, songs, videos, and even role-plays to keep things interesting.
✅ We create together! From crafts and memory games to designing fun activities they can even share and play with their parents afterward.
✅ It’s super convenient for parents. No driving around, just a simple click, and voilà!

I teach children aged 6 to 12 online, and they’re absolutely thriving. Some are even preparing for their DELF A2, B1, or B2 exams with great results.

And if you’re wondering if it’s worth trying — why not just give it a go? You might be surprised at how much your child loves it.
